Marc Dequènes (Duck) commented on OVIRT-934:
--------------------------------------------

My original comment by mail follows:

I would rather let it like this because:
www.ovirt.org is an alias for beta-ovirtweb.rhcloud.com.
beta-ovirtweb.rhcloud.com is an alias for ex-std-node798.prod.rhcloud.com.
ex-std-node798.prod.rhcloud.com is an alias for
ec2-52-23-162-8.compute-1.amazonaws.com.
ec2-52-23-162-8.compute-1.amazonaws.com has address 52.23.162.8

So I don't think we can count on the node to never change, and that's
the magic of the cloud in fact. We cannot have a CNAME for the domain,
only a A record, so a permanent _redirect_ is fine I think.

> Currently http://ovirt.org points at a server that redirects users to https://www.ovirt.org
> Trying to point the DNS directly at the OpenShift instance hosting the website does not work.
> We need to fix this in order to avoid the intermediary redirect server.
